Hypotension during subarachnoid anaesthesia: haemodynamic effects of ephedrine.
We have compared the haemodynamic effects of ephedrine alone with ephedrine and colloid for the treatment of hypotension produced by subarachnoid anaesthesia in 30 patients aged 60-90 yr with fractures of the neck of femur. Group one received ephedrine as an initial bolus dose of 0.2 mg kg-1 followed by an infusion of 0.5 mg kg-1 h-1. Group two received ephedrine and colloid (polygeline, Haemac...

The commonest cause of SAH is rupture of a cerebral aneurysm (7085%) other causes include arteriovenous malformations, tumours, trauma and non-aneurysmal perimesencephalic haemorrh...
متن کاملCSF progesterone and spread of subarachnoid anaesthesia in pregnancy.
Sir,—Hirabayashi and colleagues [1] suggested that a sustained (at least 3–4 months) increase in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) progesterone concentration may be necessary to produce enhanced spread of spinal anaesthesia in pregnant women. We believe that these conclusions are misleading and unsupported by the results. Maximum cephalad spread of analgesia was quoted as being higher in the second tri...
متن کاملSubarachnoid haemorrhage following spinal anaesthesia in an obstetric patient.
We describe an obstetric patient who presented for removal of a retained placenta. After insertion of the spinal anaesthetic, she developed a severe headache, and a subarachnoid haemorrhage was diagnosed. We discuss the differential diagnosis of the headache, the occurrence of intracranial haemorrhages after dural puncture and the future management of this patient.
متن کاملSubarachnoid haemorrhage in pregnancy with hypertension due to unilateral pyelonephritis.
THE experimental work of Goldblatt (I934) showed that in some animal species partial occlusion of one renal artery resulted in sustained hypertension, and that removal of the ischamic kidney might restore the blood pressure to its original level. The first practical application of this work was reported by Butler in 1937 from the Boston Children's Hospital. Two patients with hypertension due to...
